Regina Daniels has again addressed Nigerians amid the ongoing End Bad Governance protest in the country

The Nollywood star looked angry as she voiced out against protest, which, according to her, was changing to something else.
Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has taken to social media to fire back after receiving hard knocks from critics over comments on nationwide protests against bad governance.

Recall that the actress, in a post shared on her official Instagram page while sharing her thoughts on the protests, condemned acts of violence carried out by some protesters.

Taking to her verified Instagram page today, August 7th, 2024, actress Regina Daniel was seen in a fuming state as she goes hard on the #EndBadGovernance protesters in the north and some other parts of the country.

According to the actress whose husband Ned Nwoko is a president, displaying Russian flags during protest by the protesters is so wrong stressing that the protest has been hijacked by hoodlums who are not fighting for peace in the country.

Actress Regina Daniels said people always accused her of being opportune and privileged whenever she preaches against violent protest which she agrees. However, the mother of two utters that she is not speaking for the government neither is she speaking for people to love her but she is totally against violent protest going on in the north.

Backing up her point, Reginal Daniels said that she has staff that includes, nannies, chefs, and gate men and she understands the need to provide them with security and other extra bills. She concluded that Nigeria as a country can’t be changed in a day or by a man.

The above video did not go down well with many Nigerians as they took to the comment section to tackle the actress stressing that the actress cum senator wife do not know the extent at which people are suffering in the country only for her to come and raise her voice on them.

Sonia Uche reveals how their father is appealing for his return in their family after abandoning them for years.

We've been wondering for a long time why a hardworking woman like Uche Nancy has to raise her four children by herself as a single mother. Divorce was not as widespread then as it is now, yet it was something that was common in African homes. It still occurs now, as well. In the majority of African societies, a married woman's duty is to bear a male child. A male child is now viewed as the family's successor when it comes to Nigeria and the Ibo tribe and culture. A male child continues the family's legacy privacy. The male child is highly valued and respected in the Ibo tribe.

A married woman or wife who doesn't have a male child for her husband is sitting on a one-leg chair in the marriage, therefore her prayer when she gets married is to have male children. Any moment now, she may be kicked out of the house. Her husband's family will forcefully eliminate her from her married home if he loves her too much and keeps her around despite having female offspring.

The woman and her daughters are not eligible to inherit their father's property, even if they are lucky enough to avoid being driven away by the husband or his relatives. Thankfully, I would say—yes, I did say—because what was happening at the time to Uche Nancy and her girls was actually a blessing in disguise. If what happened hadn't happened, we most likely wouldn't have met Uche Nancy and her family. Thankfully, Uche Nancy ended up in this predicament.
